Use Public Transportation

Amtrak Cascades train service will drop you off at the game (King Street Station) from as far south as Eugene, Ore. and as far north as Vancouver, B.C. Reservations are required, so be sure to book ahead.

The Central Link light rail offers simple service from Sea-Tac Airport, Tukwila, and downtown Seattle areas to the stadium.

With the game falling on a weekday, dedicated gameday metro bus and Sounder Train service won't be in operation, but their normal weekday routes will be available.

If you're forced to take your car in, carpooling is highly recommended. The stadium's North Lot will be closed for pregame concert viewing, so steer clear of that area. And with the NFL's Gameday Village taking over streets north of CenturyLink Field, parking lots located south of the stadium will be your best bet.

Turn To Twitter

If you're an avid Twitter user, you know it can be a great place for up-to-the-minute information. I've found the Twitter accounts mentioned below to be particularly useful when looking to navigate traffic in the Seattle area. You can expect them to be hyper-active on social media this Thursday as unforeseen circumstances arise. These accounts even add a little humor to their tweets at times, which works well to alleviate any traffic-induced stress.
